Section II. Legal Custody (Decision-Making) A.
Joint Legal Custody. Mother and Father shall have joint legal custody of their minor child(ren). "Joint legal custody" means that both parents have equal rights to participate in, contribute to, and have responsibility for matters of health and education in their child(ren)'s best interests. Neither parent's rights are superior to the other parent's rights, and they should cooperate to determine what is in their children’s best interests.
B.
Sole Legal Custody. Joint legal custody is not in the child(ren)’s best interests. “Sole legal custody” means that the parent granted sole legal custody has the primary right to decide matters of health and education in the child(ren)'s best interests. The parent not granted sole legal custody may make emergency decisions affecting the child(ren)’s health or safety when the child(ren) are in that parent's physical care and control. The grant of sole legal custody to one parent does not deprive the other parent of access to information regarding the child(ren) unless the court specifically orders, stating the reasons for that determination. 1. Sole legal custody is granted to a.
